because it is not NOT "actively supported software". :)

Are you suggesting that Apache 1.3 is not universally accepted on this list
as being at best a maintenance branch?  The last release 1.3.35 definately
proves that it's barely that, irrespective of who/how the patch was adopted,
the candidate was clearly marginally tested - although the *entire* community
had an opportunity to test the candidate.

Speaking of which - who has a hankering to add Includes wildcard, subdir and
<section>nested</section> semantics to the perl-framework suite ;-?

That said, I'm looking for your theory before I ask for a vote to clarify.

Agreed that the 1.3 announcement is due for a overhaul.

:)  Thank you.
